2006 Howell Mountain Challenge

The 2006 Howell Mountain Challenge is now open for registration (yeah, I'm a little late on this). The event, organized by the same people that bring us the Dirt Valley Classic, is billed as a "10 mile circuit, hilly, smooth to medium-rough trails, service roads, double track and single track, lots of trees.... fun course." It is also located in Angwin, CA and will operate under NORBA rules.
